And was hit by a slow moving train.

With a cupful of lye,
Which altered his facial expression.

Emerging decidedly clean.

Which was liberally coated in marge,
Jock tripped on a divot,
Went arse over pivot;
Thank God it was all free of charge!
For some old friends he wanted to meet.
He tripped on his cane,
And slipped in the rain,
And was trampled by dozens of feet.

Received a large bump where she fell.
She appplied some pink balm
Which worked like a charm
And her friends said, "All's well that ends swell!"

For he'd lost all sensation of feeling.

And he sounded like E. Power Biggs.

Beneath a great oak tree.

"We can put a pin in
And soon you can do a backflip."

For it's safer post-op, it is said.
But when they were raised,
The doc was amazed,
When Carl flipped onto his head.

To mend his sore head,
And will be there a while, I would guess.

When an angel on high
Sent a bolt from the sky
And dismantled his lightening rod.

Are limp-ass wet noodles,
But man, he does have a nice tan.

And caught in this odd situation,
With his kit and his gear
Being nothing to fear,
He looked for a warm comfort station.

When he found a remote roadside park.
Now the story's still told
How, bedraggled and cold,
The invincible Claude left his mark.

When he fell on a bench, sinking low.
Then this intrepid runner,
With aim like a gunner,
Engraved his full name in the snow!

Wearing naught but a vertical smile.
When he's done with the race,
We'll forget the lad's face,
But not lightly dismiss his profile.
--- Mary Sullivan
The crowd lingers to cheer him on in.
They expectantly await
Him, to witness his fate,
As he huffs and he puffs 'round the bend.

As, in a flurry of elbows and knees,
He gazellefully flits
With his pieces and bits
Being bandied about in the breeze.

Which is to say, strike,
Anyone you dislike,
As they might affrap back with a strap.

Then boxed my ears
And hit me with a broom.

And the neighbors all smiled as they cheered.
